Such a result in only natural. Thu investora ( if there are any ) keep away froni these atoks becauo they see i that they are advancing and declining , iiot upon their merita , but under the ' pressure of artificial iuiluences , while the professional ap'eculators d.cliiie to have anything to do with them because they - have the whole iLit to wor with- . 9ut taking any xtra risks of squeezes ind shakeouts.TIie coriiers in these i .

Mr. c Xeeno is a very agile manipulator , and & few inca in 'Wall Strqot are able to jump p -in and out as quickly as he does ; But the inconvenience of taking the bull side , of the market now , oven for.a momentary ; turn , ia that MrYandcrbilt.Mr. Villard , Mr. ( ould and all the Inca who are loaded with stocks watch the market as a L cat does a mouse , and jump on it to fl 3o11 the moment they see the slightest ' ehanee to do o. 1hws , a man might q ) in merely for a quick turn and ? thid himself s heavily loaded as to be , : unible to turn at all. The danger bore is , in prqportion , na great to the man who handles but a few hundred shares as it J is to the man who handles thousands. No matter what , may be the immediate 1 course of the market , there can be no ' I question that the center of interest will bo in tim Villard stocks. Many uncoizi- pliinontary things are said about these scuritiea , but , as usual , some of th' mmt important arc overlooked - by the majority of people. After the cole&sal junketing expedition , which must have cost the Northern Pacific a pretty penny , Wall street was not nunat- 7.irally surprised to find that retrenchment 'was the order of the day. Vice Presi. dent Oakes has gone out into the sno west to reduce expense , at least such is the ostensible reason of his departure , though some unkind people are hinting rhat he i8 keeping out of the way of a . .JI ! . . ubpona. Accndiag to a western journal - , nal this oconamical movement has already had BI'.D , VFE ( and several accidents have occurred on the road , owing to the reduction in ieflicicncy of the switchmen. Tiia there s something in'th o reports is proved by the caustic letter written by General Haupt , who han been general nianiger of ] te road since 1881 , and who has just ro- \ iiignod his office rather than. hold it and ) o unable to perform his duties efficiently. Probably the president of a railroad never received a more scathing rebuke 1t9IIi lu $ subordinates than is coil- . . tainod in General ITaupt's letter when ie says : "i : have received from you in. iitruction.s to curtail expenses in every department , to .diBcontiltuo the work in progress , and to discharge employos who bavoaorved the company efhiciently. The - restrictions that have boon placed upon ts general manager are of such a nature that I cannot sea how it is possible to con. tinue in management , and secure resultn that will beat the same time creditable to myself and satisfactory to the stock. Ji'4ders. " When a man gives up a lucra- 41 tWo and important office for sUch reasons as those , it is evident that things must ho in a very bad way indeed. oR 13 TilLS ALL. Wall street has beeii expecting for some time a statoinent of the fiuiancial hOttiOn of the Oregon Transcontinental cinnpany. The date of its isuo has boon poatponod from day to day aiid it is now whispered that several of the hroininent bankers interested in that company have refused to sIgn or in any way to endorse i- . , the statement.

The recent decline in the 'Villard stocks has directed public atten. thou to oiio point which ought to be von. tilated thoroughly , Is the president of a company R1)1oifltCd , as a trustee of the atockholdors , or as thto speculative nomi- flee of a fov Wall street operatoral Of course every one knows that a man like Mr. ittissehl Sage becomes a director in a railroad cotnpzuiy or a bank merely to have his information 5)1 months ahead of every vne else , RflI to be able to ninke out Ins puts and calls accordingly. But it seems as if the president of a railroiul1 at all evcut , if not thu directors , should have other aims than personal notoriety or gain. - ! 1 EhEG1A1'II NOTES.
